CSK lost their last two matches against the Rajasthan Royals (RR) and the Delhi Capitals (DC)
Mumbai: Cricket Analyst Aakash Chopra believes the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) need to return to winning ways ahead of the IPL 2021 playoffs.
CSK is facing the Punjab Kings (PBKS) in their last league stage match of the current edition of the Indian Premier League. While previewing the CSK-PBKS clash, in a video shared on his YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra highlighted that the MS Dhoni-led side will want to end their losing run.

He observed, “Chennai have the chance to win this encounter and if they win, they can confirm their spot in the top two. They have lost two consecutive matches. Do you want to walk into the playoffs with 3 losses? No way.”
The former India cricketer added that CSK will not want to go into the playoffs with negative momentum. Also Read: Chahal Is Back To The Bowling Way We Know He Can In IPL 2021’s 2nd Leg: Kohli
“Whatever the team might be, if you keep winning the momentum is maintained, winning is a habit, so is losing. Chennai will have to break their losing streak and today is the last chance as after this it is only the playoffs,” Chopra said.
CSK lost their last two matches against the Rajasthan Royals (RR) and the Delhi Capitals (DC), after being the first team to qualify for the play-offs.
CSK are now 2nd on the points table but are also almost guaranteed a top-two finish in the IPL 2021 points table. They can only be denied a spot in Qualifier 1 if they are handed a thrashing by PBKS and the Royal Challengers Bangalore annihilate the Delhi Capitals.
